Want a surefire way to make your legal team love you? Learn how to properly manage stock photos and other licensed assets with your digital asset management (DAM) system.
Tracking usage rights and communicating them to others in your organization can be extremely time consuming, so many people skip it altogether. But did you know that DAM can help you efficiently track usage and help your organization remain legally compliant?
Rights management is one of the most under-utilized benefits of digital asset management software, but it can be one of the most valuable. Managing usage rights within your DAM solution can help you:
- Communicate accurate usage rights to ensure your organization is in compliance with copyright and intellectual property laws
- Track downloads and usage of an asset over time
- Receive automatic notifications when a license to an asset is about to expire
- Reduce the possibility of duplicate stock purchases and provide a space for purchased assets to be available to all users as a shared resource*
Take a look at this new stock photo whitepaper from Widen to learn more and find out how you can use your DAM system for the greater legal good.
This and other great DAM resources are available from the Widen resource library.
*Note: Not all stock licenses allow assets to be shared with other users via DAM systems. Please refer to the stock agency’s licensing agreement for details.
